The Challenge
The client ran 32 legal entities across 100+ currencies on D365FO but wasn’t consistently performing foreign currency revaluation — creating month-end headaches across GL, AP, AR and bank balances, and leaving finance teams unclear on which balances should be revalued and how.
The Solution
Magnifia built a standardized global revaluation process spanning GL, AP, AR and bank, giving the finance team both a repeatable procedure and a working understanding of the mechanics behind it.
| GL | → | AP | → | AR | → | Bank | → | FX Revaluation | → | Unrealized G/L | → | Financial Reporting |
The Bank Revaluation Fix
Initial bank revaluation results didn’t match expectations. The root cause: D365FO revalues balances by Ledger Account + Financial Dimension combination — so unwanted revaluation isn’t fixed by changing a setting, but by ensuring balances sit against the right combination first. Magnifia established a review → identify combination → determine treatment → transfer balance → run revaluation process, aligning system behavior with the client’s accounting expectations.
Business Impact
- Standardized FX revaluation across all 32 entities and 100+ currencies
- Month-end revaluation reduced to a repeatable 1-day activity
- Foreign currency balances across GL, AP, AR and Bank now revalue accurately
- Finance team gained a working understanding of why D365FO produces the results it does, not just a configuration
The Magnifia Difference
“We don’t just configure D365FO. We make finance teams understand what the system is doing — and why.”
